We thank you, 1975 Senior Class 18 Our sophomore year began a new way of counseling at Mepham. Instead of students of ail grades sharing counselors because their last names happened to start with the same letters, our class was assigned two counselors of our own to work with us dur- ing our three years at Mepham. From plan- ning junior schedules to choosing colleges, from children to adults, they helped us grow. 19 AREA CLOSED BOARD OF EDUCATION J. Groen, P. Deeley, K. Ashworth, H. Luce, T. Rylander, G.

Band had another successful year performing as both the Concert Band and Marching Band. The Concert or Symphonic Band was directed by Mr. Herbert Schoales and assisted by Mr. Howard Rockwin. The group was made up of 73 musicians of diverse instrumental talent. The directors had their work cut out for them to uni- fy the individual talents of the band members into a functioning musical organization. Through hard work and persistence, they man- aged to develop a fine Symphonic Band that truly upheld the traditions and high standards of previous years. The Marching Band will always be remembered for its fine performances at Mepham's home football games. Under the field direction of Drum Major Frank Colletti and Drum Majorette Peg Herzberg, the band performed a pre-game show and a half-time program at every game. Under the very able leadership of Band Captain Mike Tucker, the band held its fundraising pro- gram to finance the annual exchange concert. As usual, the exchange weekend created some great music and great friends. 61 MADRIGAL ENSEMBLE CHAMBER CHORALE Hard work pays off, as dem- onstrated by the school orchestra. Daily rehearsals led to successful winter and spring concerts. With Nancy Jacobs as concert-mistress and president, and Howard Rockwin conducting, sounds of violins, flutes, and piano mingled with other popular notes at Mepham.

I think I'll buy lunch in the cafe- teria today. What am I going to do? I'm late for class! High School is a great place to meet new people and make new friends. I can't go out tonight — I have school tomorrow. JUNIOR SENIOR I'll cut gym to study for the test. Well, PSAT's don't count any- way. Well, maybethe upper half. It's nice outside; I think I'll cut English. Cafeteria food? Is that what they call it? I bring my own lunch! Gym to chemistry in four minutes? Come on, they don't really expect me to be on time. Well, I'm sure there are many people I still haven't met. Even though I stayed out late, I'll manage to get to school. Study? A combined score of 620 isn't that bad! I'm not a number — I'm a hu- man being! I'll cut physics 2nd period, math 4th, psych 5th . . Who's got a car? Let's go to Burger King! What period is this, anyway? Can't wait to get out of this place! These people make me sick!

MICHELLE MELANSON Let's have a round for these freaks and soldiers; Let's have a round for these friends of mine Joni Mitchell LYNN MERKELBACK LISA MEYER SUSAN MILL LILLIAN MILLER HOLLY MILLHEISER I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed, I refuse to barter incentive for a dole. I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence; the thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of Utopia. DONNA MIRMAN Turn your back on the shadows and live for the sun. Paul Williams Jack Conrad JANET MISCIAGNO For even as I've crowns you, so shall it crucify. Even as He is for your growth, so is He for your pruning, but in your fear you seek only love's peace and pleasure, it is better for you to pass out of love's threshing door where you will laugh but not all of your laughter; and weep, but not all of your tears. Gibran 124 ROSEANNE MONTELLO MARILYN MOHUSKY PAUL MONROE STEPHANIE MONTESANO Be what you wanna be; Free as you wanna be; I can find a place in any- thing you can design. MELODY MORELLI It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. JORGE MORENO PATRICIA MOYLAN ANDREA MUNNO I shall never pass this way again; any good things I can do or any kindness I can show, let me do it now and not defer it; for I shall never pass this way again. 125 CAROLYN MURPHY The happiest moments my heart knows are those in which it is pour- ing forth its affections to a few es- teemed characters. Jefferson ANNAMARIE NARDELLA I am here to live aloud. Emile Zola CAROL NASTASI To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is under- standing, makes living worthwhile. Friendship is the most valuable pos- session in the world. ELLEN NEAMONITIS RANDY NIAD For yesterday is but a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision. But today, well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every to- morrow a vision of hope. DONALD NICKEL FRANK NOBILE 126 JOYCE NOVICK For this is just a dream we dreamed, one afternoon long ago. KAREN O'CONNEL LORI O'BRIEN BARBARA OCEPA Tomorrow is the dawning of a new day, new hopes and dreams of the future. To be all you can, and what you are not. LORRAINE OCHS PETER O'CONNOR Ife Jt KATHRYN OKEEFFE RICHARD OLEARY PETER OLESEN I experienced yesterday and antici pate tomorrow. 127 STEPHANIE ORSON Today is mine. It is unique. Nobody in the world has one exactly like it. If painful recollections of the past come into my mind, or frightening thoughts of the future, I can put them away. They cannot spoil today for me. JANEONDRIS CATHERINE O'NEIL CYNTHIA OSMER Happy are those who dream dreams and are willing to pay the price to make them come true. JAMES OSMUNDSEM DEBORAH OVETSKY Being what you are and becoming the best you can be is the fulfillment of life. ELLEN OSTROFSKY As a limitless well of hope, reassur- ance, love, and understanding; a friend is the only true possession. 128 CHRIS OWENS JOY PACE NAT PALAZZOLA The love of God and man are the greatest virtues. GRACE PALMESE Love is like a Painter, it has many pic tures, but only one Masterpiece. LINDA PALUMBO Friendship is something beautiful that should last for eternity. Whatev- er is holding our friendship together, I hope will never come apart. But if each of us should go our own way, I hope we can still say we're friends; or at least hold onto those memories forever. LISA PASQUALONE In wilderness man can harmonize his inner being with the earth, its prod- ucts and creatures. Thus concerned he will be caught in a cause greater than his own and life becomes more meaningful GERALD PALLAY ANTHONY PAMPALONE Softly, through a vinous mist, my high school friendships glimmer. 129 RICHARD PISCIOTTA JOHN POPIELARSKI PATRICIA PENNY MARIA PERELLI Always live for those who love you, for those who know you true.

MARIA PONZO It is difficult to live. MAUREEN POWERS It is difficult to live in the present, rediculous to live in the future and impossible to live in the past. Noth- ing is as far away as a minute ago. Jim Bishop. 130 KEVIN PRESSI ER PETER PRICE BETH RABINOWITZ A pessimist sees only the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philoso- pher sees both sides, and shrugs; an optimist doesn't see the clouds — he's walking on them.

ARLENE ROZELLE I recognize no obligations toward people except for one: to respect their freedom. 132 FREDRIC RUBINSTEIN PAULRUDERMAN THOMAS RYAN AMY SABEL Yesterday is already a dream and tomorrow is only the future, but to- day well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness; and every tomorrow a vision of hope. PHILIP SABELLA Only but a fool loves things he can see and touch. Ir's to love life and enjoy it so very much. Happiness is a love of life and a life of love. JUDITHANNSAMBOLIN Maybe I can love you, maybe be your friend; Maybe I can help you, your troubles to mend; Maybe sing a song for you, that's what I know best to do; Anything I want me to I'll be. LAUREN SABETTO LYNNSADOK ••.vs ■ NANCY SAMMARTINO Things are always changing, even those you have learned to love. Sometimes people have to move on and all you can do is smile and per- haps let it go. 133 VIRGINIA SANRANANDRE God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wis- dom to know the difference. ROBERT SANTAGATO ATHENA SAUBERMAN Live for today, dream of tomorrow, learn from yesterday. JOHNSAURA ALLISON SCHECTER Everything in life has its price, and happiness is the most expensive. STEVEN SCHILLING Try your hardest to reach the highest. Even if you fall short, you'll always be satisfied. ANDREW SCHONZEIT KURT SCHORKEN KURT SCHWANEMANN ELLIOT SCHWARTZ our existence is so short that it fades like the phases of the moon. We brighten at our prime, fade at final quarter and we are all caught up in an endless cycle. The moon looks down at us and laughs. JAMES SCOZZARI God has put man on earth for him to grow, using both mind and body to the best of his ability. CARLSEDDIO Life is a fatal adventure. It can only have one end. So why not make it as far-ranging and free as possible? ROBERT SERIO He saved his life by never risking it — and complained that he was misun- derstood.

DONNA SISALLI The greatest happiness of life is to be loved for yourself; or more correctly: to be loved in spite of yourself. Victor Hugo LAURA SMITH God has given to each of us a spirit with wings, wings on which to soar into the spacious firmament of Love and Freedom. Gibran PAUL ST ACHE 137 DANIEL STEHM WENDY STEIGER Judge not and ye shall not be judged; condemn not and ye shall not be condemned; forgive and ye shall be forgiven. Luke 6:37.

ELIZABETH SULLIVAN A man of knowledge is free He has no honor, no dignity, no family, no country, but only life to be lived. Don Juan THOMAS SUNKIN KAREN SUSSMAN Our dilemma is that we hate change and love it all the same time; what we really want is for things to remain the same but get better. S.J. Harris CLAIRE SWIFT Then falling asleep, I said farewell to childhood world, a secure and sun warmed existence and a past that was over and done with, and gone for all time. VIRGINIA SYRETT Is it so small a thing To have enjoyed the sun To have loved to have thought, to have done; to have ad- vanced true friends, and beat down baffling foes. Matthew Arnold. 139 GARY TEICHER CYNTHIA TEITZ For the sun and the rain and the soft kiss of wind, for children and trees and for you, my friend I am thankful. • JANE THOMAS I do my thing and you do your thing.

The experiences enriched the learning process by helping students to see a relationship between what they learned in the classroom and the real world. Many years ago students were long on experience and short on ideas, while today the opposite is true. Experience-based education can ease the transition from learning to working or in a continuing education after public school. Not only has the experience enriched the intellect but has enabled the student to develop an awareness of self in a unique way — truly preparing him for what lies ahead. 148 BOCES CULTURAL ARTS Most people are aware of the students who every day left the halls of Mepham to attend the many vocational courses offered at B.O.C.E.S. (Board of Co-operative Educational Serv- ices), such as conservation, nursing, cosmetology, and veterinary studies. In addition to these, there were the few students who left on a little yellow bus with scripts, music, and dance clothes in hand. These are the aspiring actors and dancers of our school who attend- ed the B.O.C.E.S. Cultural Arts program. The combination of professional teachers, solid course outlines, and the common interests of all involved enabled the students to develop their talents in the professional manner which they could not find in a general high school atmosphere. Perhaps Mepham will be the alma mater of a few famous performers of the future. PROM COMMITTEE Chairperson: Linda Williams SOPHOMORES 020 C. Abbey, D. Abbondola, S. Acker, F. Affisio, C. Ageloff, D.

With Nancy Carey as high-scoring center, forwards Kathy Hiller and Sue Irwin, guards Laura Regan and Maureen Timony, and Coach Bineares' encouraging leadership, the team's hard work paid off with the satisfaction of accomplishment. 170 The badminton team was the most successful of the fall sports as they won their fifth consecutive Long Island Banner by going undefeated. Led by league champions Leslie Luft (1st singles), Barbara Dallas (2nd singles), Kathy Hiller (3rd singles), and Donna Sisalli and Linda Hunt (2nd doubles), the team won every match, including the Mitropolitan Ladies Dougles Championship (Leslie Luft and Barbara Dallas). All of Mepham was proud of this year's team. DOWN THE ALLEY DOWN THE FIELD Within The Routine 173 OVERTHE NET JV Volleyball The girls' varsity and junior varsity volleyball teams each won their division title with a record of 9-0. However, due to the fact that some of the players were disqualified for partici- pating in a vacation tournament, both the JV and varsity teams, without their regular players, lost in the finals. 174 VARSITY VOLLEYBALL 175 IN THE SPIRIT 176 No game can be complete without cheerleaders. This ar's co-captains Denise Colon and Kathy Greene, along with the other six cheerleaders, led Mepham's enthusiastic games to many spirited victories. Along with the cheerleaders, were the two dynamic Debbie Dachinger and Gerrie Lassman. We can not forget our rubber duckie Tom Strolla. Everyone will agree that the girls did a fantastic job and deserve much credit for all the time and effort they contributed to Mepham's athletic teams. aniD S3HDVOD 8ZL TWIRLERS 179 IN THE HUDDLE FOOTBALL The varsity football team had a successful season, led by tri-captains Ken Cloud, Mike Mayer, Randy Ruth, despite injuries and a tough league. Ken Cloud, Bob Corbin, Mike Mayer, and Randy Ruth were elected to All Gridiron 44 team. Peter Menna was voted the team's Most Versatile Player. Varsity 180 Mepham 6 Kennedy 0 Mepham 26 Bethpage 8 Mepham 13 Calhoun 0 Mepham 20 Long Beach 7 Mepham 6 Port Washington 6 Mepham 20 Sewanhaka 0 Mepham 18 McArthur 6 FOOTBALL 183 fjjg - PAST THE GOALIE Mepham's soccer team placed second in the tough South Shore II Division despite several injuries to key players. Mitch Edelman, who scored seventeen goals, joined Tom Coccia (All South Shore) to lead a potent attack. For the seventh straight year Mepham's soccer team reached the playoffs. Cr pAMfli THROUGH THE HOOP This year's Pirate basketball team finished with a 3 and 9 record. Although the record indicates otherwise, the Pirates gave the opposition a fierce battle in most of the games. With co- captains Ken Cloud and Don Nickel, the only returnees from last year's playoff squad, Mepham showed poise, hustle, and determination in what was considered a rebuilding year. 186 Varsity WRESTLING ON THE MATS Coach Ken Hunte's wrestlers compiled an 14-1 team record. Throughout the season, Mepham was ranked first in the county due to spectacular efforts by several individuals. Lee Spiegal, John Schmidt, John McGrath, and John Harvey were all undefeated. John Citrongola and Jeff Creighton had excellent records. In the Division Tournament, Mepham soundly defeated all opponents and placed fourteen men in the County Tourney. For the first time in fifteen years, Mepham won the County Championship. Coach Hunte deserves special recognition for the outstanding job he has done in upholding Mepham's reputation as a wrestling power. 189 AT THE RACES CROSSCOUNTRY Mepham's cross-country team upheld its reputation as the team to beat in Nassau County. Gary Lindquist, Dexter Braff, and Bob Scwartzberg led the state renowned team to another unbeaten dual meet season and a second place finish in the country championships. TRACK Coach Limmer's team once again proved its excellence. The team finished strongly in all events. Outstanding players for the year were Bob Mauchan, Bob Schwartzberg, Gary Lindquist and Dexter Braff. ON THE DIAMOND BASEBALL The baseball team came back as Long Island Champs of 1974. They had a successful season with many returning players. 193 19S 1% It's only the beginning . . . 197 Jim Gregory Many thanks to all the teachers, students, and parents who expressed their kind thoughts and prayers to our family.

Jim Gregory 198 Todd McCallum You will be forever remembered as a friend, forever remembered in our hearts. MEMORIAM Ernie Lucas Ernie lived for the present, he took things as they came. He was one of those people with whom you just naturally made friends. Ern never knew what the word hassle meant, and it was impossible to get him angry. He was at his best when he was hap- py and smiling, which was almost all the time. To some Ernie Lucas is just a name, to oth- ers a fading memory, but to those who really knew him, Ernie lives eternally.
